The Øresund Tunnel is the largest monolithically constructed tunnel in the world. During the realisation of this project, PERI has fulfilled our expectations. Even the tight schedule wasn´t a problem, neither was compliance with the strict dimensional tolerances during the construction. PERI has undoubtedly kept its promises with regard to performance and technical knowledge.
